Kar-Tainer to trial with major U.S. Railroad

Kar-Tainer announced that it has entered into an agreement with a major U.S. Railroad. This agreement entails the trialing of their specialized container shipping cassettes on some specific U.S. routes where shipping containers are being re-positioned. As the Kar-Tainer system is not dedicated to the container it is shipped in, such re-positioning corridors are ideal for the economical use of the Kar-Tainer systems.

The trial is due to get under way before the end of September and could lead to a major break through for the containerized transportation of vehicles in the US.
